Burnt Popcorn

He can't lie! Or keep a thought to himself! Does that count as a lie? We're not sure, but we debate it a lot in this week's episode of Burnt Popcorn! On our second Jim Carrey outing on the podcast, we'll see if taking on a more "grounded" character will hold up better than The Mask did way back in episode 39. Are his rubber faced antics more tolerable this time around? Or does he fall flat once again? Let's find out, shall we? Release Date: March 21st, 1997 Directed by: Tom Shadyac Starring:  Jim Carrey Maura Tierney Amanda Donohoe Jennifer Tilly

According to the marketing of this movie, size does matter... But does it make for a good movie? Mike and Laura are joined with Godzilla super fan and podcaster Andrew Roebuck to talk about the first American attempt at the Japanese Giant. Is a big bomb or does it somehow fill the very big shoes of it's rubber suit wearing forefather? Release Date: May 20th, 1998 Directed by: Roland Emmerich Starring:  Godzilla Matthew Broderick Jean Reno Maria Pitillo

It's our first film from 2002, and Laura picked the... sequel? Spiritual successor? Spinoff? To the only movie both Mike and Laura gave a Burnt rating to, Interview With The Vampire. Will Stuart Townsend's Lestat make Tom Cruise's look like a chump? Does the girl from the Mighty Ducks enjoy a different kind of Flying V(a vampire one)? Can Queen of the Damned redeem the franchise in our eyes or is this another case of Laura's goth heart looking nostalgically back with dark tinted glasses? Release Date: February 22, 2002 Directed by: Michael Rymer Starring:  Stuart Townsend Marguerite Moreau Aaliyah Vincent Perez

A movie that's as respected as it is parodied, 1993's The Fugitive takes an old tv show that a lot of people these days probably haven't even heard of these days and breathed new life as a Harrison Ford action thriller. Is it worth unravelling the mystery or like a certain US Marshal should you just "not care?" Release Date: August 6th, 1993 Directed by: Andrew Davis Starring:  Harrison Ford Tommy Lee Jones Sela Ward

In the first of our new bi weekly episode format, we look into the world of 90s teen dreaming, when Laura revisits her sexual awakening (her words, seriously) with this Dicaprio starring vehicle. Does this 500 year old work of the bard still work in this modern setting? Or does adapting it to the 90s age it more than making it a period piece would? Release Date: November 1, 1996 Directed by: Baz Luhrmann Starring:  Leonardo DiCaprio Claire Danes John Leguizamo
